STRINGSTRING
STRING protein interaction network
Nodes:
Network nodes represent proteins
splice isoforms or post-translational modifications are collapsed, i.e. each node represents all the proteins produced by a single, protein-coding gene locus.
Node Color
colored nodes:
query proteins and first shell of interactors
white nodes:
second shell of interactors
Node Content
empty nodes:
proteins of unknown 3D structure
filled nodes:
a 3D structure is known or predicted
Edges:
Edges represent protein-protein associations
associations are meant to be specific and meaningful, i.e. proteins jointly contribute to a shared function; this does not necessarily mean they are physically binding to each other.
Known Interactions
from curated databases
experimentally determined
Predicted Interactions
gene neighborhood
gene fusions
gene co-occurrence
Others
textmining
co-expression
protein homology

gon-1A disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs gon-1; Secreted metalloprotease required for distal tip cell (DTC) migration along the body wall basement membranes, a key step that promotes gonad morphogenesis. Probably acts by remodeling the basement membrane during cell migration. Required to restrict presynaptic growth at the neuromuscular junctions (NMJ) in late larval stage and in adult motor neurons, probably by controlling collagen IV emb-9 degradation, a component of the synapse basement membrane. Also involved in the organization of adult muscle morphology. Has [...] (2165 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
fbl-1
Fibulin-1; Incorporated into fibronectin-containing matrix fibers. Plays a role in cell adhesion and migration along protein fibers within the extracellular matrix (ECM). Important for certain developmental processes and contributes to the supramolecular organization of ECM architecture, in particular to those of basement membranes. [Isoform c]: Involved in the assembly of the flexible hemicentin-containing tracks found joining the pharynx and body-wall- muscle basement membranes; Belongs to the fibulin family.
   
 
 0.832
emb-9
Collagen alpha-1(IV) chain; Collagen type IV is specific for basement membranes (Probable). Required to restrict presynaptic growth at the neuromuscular junctions (NMJ) in late larval stage and in adult motor neurons. May play a role in axon regeneration in embryos following injury in D-type motor neurons.
   
 
 0.773
cri-2
Putative metalloproteinase inhibitor tag-225; Complexes with metalloproteinases and irreversibly inactivates them by binding to their catalytic zinc cofactor. Belongs to the protease inhibitor I35 (TIMP) family.
    
 
 0.769
adt-3
Peptidase M12B domain-containing protein.
   
 
0.635
unc-6
Netrin unc-6; Component of an extracellular matrix cue that guides dorsoventral migrations on the epidermis. Required for the guidance of pioneer axons and migrating cells along the body wall. During gonad morphogenesis, involved in distal tip cell (DTC) migration from the dorsal side of the hermaphrodite body to the midbody to allow for formation of gonad arms. Its association with either unc-40 or unc-5 receptors will lead to axon attraction or repulsion, respectively. Involved in the positioning of ray 1, the most anterior ray sensilium, in the male tail. Required for the formation [...]
   
  
 0.632
hlh-12
BHLH domain-containing protein.
      
 0.627
him-4
EGF-like domain-containing protein.
   
  
 0.614
mig-6
Papilin; Involved in pharynx morphogenesis probably by remodeling the basement membrane. [Isoform b]: Plays a role in post embryonic distal cell tip migration. Essential extracellular matrix (ECM) protein required for hypodermal enclosure in the embryo.
   
 
0.602
adt-2
A disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs adt-2; Regulates body size probably independently of the TGF beta- like dbl-1 pathway. However, may regulate some dbl-1-mediated transcription. Plays a role in cuticle collagen fibril organization. Required for embryonic development.
   
 
0.586
adt-1
A disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs adt-1; Plays a role in ray morphogenesis in the male tail, probably by remodeling the extracellular matrix (ECM) in the cuticle.
